Even silage measurements are becoming online-only systems.With a lax of regulations in this area, how soon will we see data-heists and vendor lock-in problems in this space?When will we be getting GPDR for cows? #adnoyance https://t.co/1Wk2jvP9me
This stuff is ripe for disruption.Here's a simple open source crowd based platform that, once you've got a device built to read spectra, you can just upload directly to as a public database: https://t.co/AC49Nr5tZRThese things aren't that hard to DIY https://t.co/Kyrx2qokGz
I found two different DIY kits.One publicided by hackaday shortly after that SCiO Kickstarter got flagged for copyrighte infringement.https://t.co/vL9u9X3GkUAnd that open source org shows how to build a DIY back in 2012.https://t.co/Hupc2fuxlT
On the Hackaday, Someone linked to a 2009 page on how to use a DVD to generate a full spectrum spread.https://t.co/EML3Y9oPT4Makes me wonder how easy it would be to turn a Rapsberry PI 0 into a handheld Spectroscope and skip the whole $900 developer price of the SCiO.
There are interesting comments on hackerspace page if you're curious.https://t.co/JA1sCRXkGThttps://t.co/7E0yYgiZDSI've been looking to see if anyone has had the idea to merge something like peachyprinter's laser/mirror system w/ this sort of thing. Automatic scanning of poop.
Peachy Printer (open source https://t.co/R8vBFES6ha ) is another disappointing kickstarter campaign, but for different reasons.https://t.co/4QNHNzWDHz
Instructables has a complete design using a CD.https://t.co/NffoTO6dPhand someone even went on to improve it, complete with aurduino code.https://t.co/FnGXpTQ7oIWouldn't take much to transform this into something worth a science logging package.https://t.co/XFLR8BFoDO
